Happy birthday, TTC: Although various private companies had operated transit lines here since 1849, the city established the Toronto Transportation Commission (TTC) 96 years ago, on Sept 1, 1921. This Peter Witt-type 51-passenger streetcar was one of the first ones the TTC purchased. After 41 years of service, it was retired in 1962. You can still see TTC streetcar 2300 if you visit the Canadian Railway Museum in Montreal.
